Get a mini split ,mr.cool , change your life in rv!

Purchased: August 2023 - still works GREAT!I kzread.infoUgkxxsUnXhGsSJLim_XnMHyQK0u3XVaW-CGn live in a studio and during the summer it gets scorching hot - really old building with no ac units. I can’t express how EASY it was to install. This unit has been a life savior during the summer and some days during other seasons where it can still be a bit warm at night. In this small place is my friend, a husky, poodle mix and myself. We need AC - lolI don’t use the dehumidifier option - I’m not sure if it will leak in my house, since I did not install the small draining hose that came with it. May look into it late but I don’t worry about much humidity in the apartment. I don’t understand why the negative reviews since all things mentioned, I personally did not find issues with. Definitely worth it!

I also should have mentioned that when I did the modification and re-started the unit, I was amazed to see that the vents pushed out a lot of debris (small pieces of wood and dust) giving good indication of the improvement in the force of the new air flow produced. Thats Why wait.

Great Job my man! I followed your process step-by-step, and what a difference! Thank you for the time and effort to share this with us - you ROCK!!

We did this to ours about a month ago and were very surprised at all the openings into our roof area as well as openings between the intake and exhaust sides. We used the same foam as well as reflectix on areas we did not need foam. Results were outstanding. Three ducts had very little air flow and temps were no more than 8 to 10 degrees below ambient. Our ducts now blow air out with force and that is all ducts. Temps can drop 20 degrees making the trailer cold. We did use 1 inch with 1/2 inch on dump area and closed the dump off due to noise. Very quite and cold now with 13,500 ac in 22 foot trailer. Great mod. Wife is very happy now.

Hey new BFF! I did this to both my ACs and it dropped the bedroom from 86 to 72 and the living room from 89 to 76. 102 degrees outside. It will be a little cooler with the ceiling fan on. Also, I didn't notice in the bedroom AC, but the main AC center divider was centered. It had 6" of duct showing. I moved that over 2.5 inches where the duct will get the full 8.5 wide inlet that it was designed to get. The intake side was not affected, because it didn't require the full width. No bypassing either. Very cool! I can't thank you enough. Take care BFF! Dale

Well-made video and I used it as a guide when doing my RV airbox. One change I made that increased the airflow dramatically was leaving out the old cold air director at the underside by the filters. This allows for more air intake from the interior and almost full use of the filters on either side. Took me about 3 hours and well worth the time just for the noise reduction factor.

Hi Chris, Thanks for this great idea and video. I just completed this on our 36’ Arctic Fox Grande Ronde fifth wheel. The RV only came with one 15K BTU AC unit. Before I did this modification, I was worried that we needed to add a second AC in our bedroom as the flow put of the duct in the bedroom was very slow. I’m pleased to say that the difference after the modification is night and day. I have no doubt that in most climates we will be able to keep the RV cool with the single unit. The cost of the modification was about $30.00 plus some of my time. A unit from RV Airflow was $140 plus tax and shipping and I’d have also had to install it too. This is way better. Thanks again!

I have the common duct that runs from front to rear. Now when I turn either one of the units(only one) then cold air comes out of the intake side of the other unit as well as all the vents.

Used an old vitamin bottle taped in place, does not affect the overall performance while closed, slight decrease while unit vent or vents are open. Still what a huge difference. $ 20 bucks 1.5 hrs start to finish. There is a commercial product called RV airflow system for $170. However it will eliminate the unit vents.

Installed the RVAirflow unit in our RV. You did a great job. Maybe even better, since I couldn't really tell if the side ducts lined up perfectly with the RVairflow box. Instead of channels in the foam board you could have just drilled holes for the lag bolts to go through.

​. The saved $160 buys nice steaks.

Nice simple modification to a/c which was well explained, thank you. One minor point that struck me, and other people proposing this have also missed this. The divider should be sealed in place, but not replaced, Colman or the RV builder chose it because it is an acoustic absorber (foil one side and open faced on other) ideally your bottom sheet and any blank internal surfaces of plenum chamber should be lined with it, as long as it does not overly restrict airflow it will help to absorb fan and airflow noise. Acoustic suspended ceiling tiles (the ones they fit in the grids in big offices) are a good option, by all means use shiny tape on opposite side to airflow to seal everything up, but smooth hard surfaces propagate sound (noise is after all unwanted sound!). This is just an observation and not a criticism, I liked the simplicity of the concept.

Did mine last year. My a/c was extremely loud, so loud we put in a sound bar in order to hear the tv. The a/c would not cool the trailer if it was 90 outside and the ducts blew very little. We dropped the bottom plate and were surprised to find one corner of the box had a 3/4 inch gap by 4" dumping into the attic while the opposing corner had about a 1/2 inch by 4" gap. The divider that seperates incoming air from cooled air was down about 1/2 by 10 or eleven inches allowing cooled air to be recirculated within the box. This kind of explains why the a/c at best could only drop the temps by 10 degrees at most and ran constantly (and loudly) day and night. We used foam to direct air flow, removed and correctly installed the divider in the a/c box, put Reflectix on all areas not covered by foam, sealed up the two corners and blocked the a/c duct from the inside of the dump plate with reflctix and aluminum tape. The end result of this was, the a/c now will make the inside of the rv downright cold. We no longer need the tv sound bar, we run it on low most of the time now. The trailer cools down quickly. For sound, you really don't hear it on low now and on high there is no more loud rumble, just the sound of air blowing across the rooms from All the ducts that before had little to none. At campgrounds others have commented on how quite it is compared to theirs. This was on a 2019 Grand Design 22RBE purchased new. Sad how poorly installed it was and how it is designed in such a way (universal) as to create tumbling misdirected air that as a result creates a loud roaring noise. Probably the best mod we have done to the rv as on low you no longer even hear the air but the rv is nice and cool. One more note, after doing this the a/c was not as quite as we wanted it to be though much quieter and working much, much better. I dropped the bottom plate and (I don't remember if I used 1/2 inch foam, reflectix or both) covered the dump area. There is a lot of turbulence around the dump area and nothing to block the sound. With the ducts now working so much better the dump was not necessary. This did the trick and brought the sound down to very, very low as in I could whisper with my wife on low and talk in a 'normal' voice with my wife on high.

Make sure to check that your thermostat wire going into your fins is still pushed in there good. They are known to rattle out sometimes which would cause it to freeze up.

Great job, thanks for sharing! Doing it on mine next

Great idea, great design. Can't use the dump for air, but could put a filter over them and open them for additional air return. Chief

Thank you! 👍🏼We never used the dumps anyways. When I put it back together I left that whole piece off with the track so that there’s more area for the return air.

Thanks for the detailed instruction.

I went out and check mine, which has not been cooling like it should, and low and behold, there was a ton of cold air blowing into the hot air passage. Most of it coming from under the very edge of the frame. I will be doing this mod. Thanks

I've done this to my RV but I opened up my intake it improves the airflow even more.

Sure thing, definitely. When I put it back together I left the one piece with the dump channel off. Appreciate you watching! 👍🏼

Great video! i had the material for a few weeks and finally got around to doing this mod. Absolutely amazed at the airflow its down to 71 from 90 in 2 hrs and dropping. We are in south FL and the humidity is 100%. we only have one ac i can ck off the second ac no need. I can only think of one thing to make it better.......install my home central unit in it lol.

Ours will get in the mid to upper 60s now, a huge difference at 90 ambient.

You temp drop sounds right...2 hours to drop 19 degrees. I'm not sure how Why Wait dropped 9 degrees in 11 minutes. I've never seen anywhere near that performance even with 3 A/C units running.

Also if you put a mister set up on the roof with a calcium filter to keep that head pressure down on the compressor works here in Redding 115 kept my coach at 75

thanks, will definitely be trying it!

Yes sir!

the upper corner pieces is really all u need to eliminate dead space, the outlet air is going to be forced into the vents by suction so no need for the triangle, it's a great mod to do that is necessary

@WhyWait

For sure, its just about reducing the space so the static air pressure builds up and forces the air out quicker. Thanks for watching!!

Great video. I know what I'm doing tomorrow. I cand stand the low pressure in my vents. I can't wait to see how much this will help
